The Day My Standard Becomes the World’s
When I was a child, I remember watching an episode of Doraemon that left a deep impression on me.
I don’t remember the exact name of the gadget,
but the story went like this:
Nobita, who always struggled to fly his kite, uses a tool that suddenly changes the rules.
In that new world, kites are meant to be dragged along the ground—not flown.
And just like that, Nobita becomes a master in this altered reality.
I remember thinking:
“I want a gadget that makes the way I do things the new standard.”
⸻
Years later, as an adult, I remembered that feeling—
and questioned myself:
“Was that a low-level desire?”
“Was I just trying to avoid effort?”
“Was it just wishful thinking to be praised without having to change?”
But now I see it differently.
⸻
That wasn’t escapism.
It was the seed of something deeper—
the core desire of a creator.
It wasn’t about being recognized for no reason.
It was about this:
“What if the thing I’m doing—exactly as I do it—isn’t wrong?
What if the world just hasn’t caught up yet?”
⸻
Isn’t that what art is?
To create something that doesn’t fit the current rules—
but redefines them.
To offer a rhythm, a sound, a way of being
that says:
“This is valid. This is real. This is worth listening to.”
⸻
What if what I’ve been doing all along
wasn’t off-track,
but simply early?
What if my “failure” was just a future waiting to be recognized?
⸻
Through sound, I’ve started to sense it.
The quiet confidence.
The shift in how people respond.
The feeling that maybe—just maybe—
My standard is becoming the world’s.
Not through a gadget.
Not through force.
But through one honest note at a time.
